At the moment, we accept yet to see a advertence to “albacore” in ASOP.
However, there’s now addition bottomless report, from WinFuture.de, that claims Google is alive on a new phone that could barrage in the aboriginal bisected of 2019. The aforementioned armpit claims the cipher name for the phone is “bonita” and that it will use the anew appear Qualcomm Snapdragon 710 processor that’s advised for mid-range ($400-$500) devices. This may be the additional bearing of such a accessory from the company. There are still rumors that Google could barrage a new mid-range phone ancient in the summer of 2018, that would ambition developing markets like India.
Probably the bigger catechism on everyone’s aperture is whether the Pixel 3 will accept the arguable affectation notch. Well, aboriginal of all, a address out of Korea claims that LG Affectation is bartering alveolate OLED screens to Google. The address didn’t analyze whether this was for a accurate smartphone, but that’s area the abutting address comes in…
A Bloomberg address this week, citation “people accustomed with the matter,” says the Pixel 3 XL will accept a alveolate display. The sources add that the accepted archetypal will beacon bright of the cutout.
The two letters chase counterfeit Cheep and Weibo leaks, claiming a cleft for the XL archetypal as well.

If the images are legit, the smartphone will accept an all-glass back. At aboriginal glance, the Pixel 3 XL seems to affection the aforementioned metal-back-and-glass-window architecture as the accepted generation. But on afterpiece examination, you can see that the aback is absolutely one slab of bottle with a matte accomplishment on the lower part. This could beggarly the handset will abutment wireless charging, although annihilation has been accepted yet.

The advanced ability be a altered story, as the accessory may not affection a cleft (Hurray!). Hopefully, it additionally won’t accept those animal blubbery bezels begin on its predecessor.
The Pixels stick to Qualcomm’s flagship-level Snapdragon chipsets, such as the Snapdragon 821 in the aboriginal Google Pixel and the Snapdragon 835 in the Pixel 2 range.
The Pixel 3 duo is unsurprisingly angled to access with the Snapdragon 845 processor, WinFuture reports. Unless Qualcomm has a hardly upgraded processor accessible for Google (like they had with the Snapdragon 821), it can alone be the Snapdragon 845.
